Chapter: Part 5: Queen of Wolves Chapter 4: A Walk with the QueenNok sufficiently distracted me all afternoon and dinner unfortunately was upon us. What was odd though wasn’t that Dimitris seemed to constantly be pulling the conversation away from me but that everyone seemed to be more relaxed. I wasn’t sure what happened with everyone but the air in the dining room was actually pleasant. Maybe, I thought, this wouldn't be so difficult to get through? When dinner finished Alfred and Emnore were excused first followed by Conrad and Anju. Wulda cleared her throat as Nok and Mani reached for her hand, “I would like to escort the ward back to her chambers.” She turned to me, “You are where?” “Conrad.” Hectyr whispered in my ear, “Tell her Conrad.” I shook my head in disbelief and nodded, “Umm. I am next to Conrad and Anju. I sleep in that spare room.” “Wait really?” Nok gasped and looked back at me. I nodded, “Yes, I have been for quite some time. Since the umm… attack.” Did I sound believable? Honestly I thought I sounded nervous. My track reco

Chapter: Part 5: Queen of Wolves Chapter 3: The Rejected Family MembersIt was hard for me to grasp at first but honestly learning from Hectyr alone was not terrible. Without everyone else around he kind of seemed like a genuinely easy going guy. I was nearly reminded of Nok at first when he was trying to sway me towards his cause, only with Hectyr it was still different, I couldn’t put my finger on it just yet, but I knew there was something different about him. Time passed so quickly too and I was just hanging on to his every word until we needed to break for lunch time. I had managed to get my voice to bounce off a tree and echo around us three times before fading. When I jumped and exclaimed with glee as if I were some kid who had actually accomplished something I turned back to him with a wide grin. “I did it!” laughing those also echoed around us. “I’m actually doing it!” He nodded and pushed himself off the tree patting me on the head as he passed. “You’re a natural. Come on, it’s time to eat.” “What?” I scoffed, “You really going to give up wh

Chapter: Part 5: Queen of Wolves Chapter 2: Lesson 1 in the WindI was dismissed from dinner with everyone and started my walk toward my bedroom next to Conrad and Anju. You’re coming back to our room. Dimtiris ordered.Make me. I growled back. I can. His smirk reverberated through our bond. We need to talk. We? I scoffed. Are you actually going to talk or is this going to be forcing me to share all my thoughts?I needed time to process what you knew. Now that I know what you do we need to talk. If you would have asked I’d have told you what I found out. I didn’t have time to ask. If you knew-Enough! If I knew then I’d know and maybe we’d get along right now. You’re going to need to do better than that if you want me to come to your room.Our room. He corrected, and you’re outside my love. What? I blinked, realizing that I had come to his hallway. Stop doing that! I blurted and stomped my foot hard. Dimitris responded by opening the door, a smug grin across his face. “Ready to talk?”“Ready to give me back my privacy?” I sneered.“If we tal

Chapter: Part 5: Queen of Wolves Chapter 1: A Queen's DinnerSome random servant came to get me for dinner. I didn’t bother to take note of which one it was. It didn’t matter to me. The dining hall I was led to had an empty space between Nok and Hectyr and I figured that was where I was being exiled. “Welcome to the cool kids club.” Hectyr smirked making sure his voice was only on the wind next to my ear. “Change your mind about learning your windtouched abilities yet?” I ignored him as best I could and turned my back to him making a point to only address Nok. “Long time huh?” He nodded, “At least you don’t have to sit next to Dimitris anymore.” “A fact I am more happy about tonight than anything.” Wulda entered with Emnore and Alred who pulled out the chairs for them before taking his own seat which welcomed Conrad and Anju. Mani and Odda were next leading Aurelia and Clarilla. Aurelia made sure to lock eyes with me as she took what used to be my seat and then flashed an innocent smile to Wulda. Soon it was only Dimitris left. We

Chapter: Part 4: Bound Chapter 34: The True Ruler“Everything okay?” Dimitris entered the room nearly silent. My only notice was Helix fading from view quickly. I nodded not wanting to say anything, needing a moment to make sure my thoughts were well under control. “I know you’re upset.” He was talking low, “Trust me, lunch was not something you’d have liked to attend.” Shrugging, I got back to my feet and put the Beltane journal back on the shelf hoping he didn’t have questions. “I would have liked to make the choice myself, but it’s fine. I’ve been reading.” “Learn anything new?” “I learned you like to appease your mother more than the average king.” my side eye back hopefully also conveyed the message I was not going to be quelled. “I do what I need to.” He sighed and took a seat, “You’re coming to dinner at least.” “Am I?” I scoffed, “Did the great Wulda approve?” “She can hate the fact you’re a ward of the crown all she wants. The fact remains you’re-” “A ward.” I growled, “That’s what I am. I’m not your mate, I’m not

Chapter: Part 4: Bound Chapter 33: The Helix Towers“Read this one.” A diary fell from the shelf and landed on the floor causing my heart to sink a little. “Be easy with them!” I called and rushed over to the book. “Beltane?” It wasn’t close to the beginning maybe a couple of diaries in, so it was well after the barrier had been established. “Why this one?”No response. Why would I think differently? He was actually very chatty today comparatively. Wolves howl at night. That’s all that seems to make noise anymore. I’ve been watching the barrier for nearly ten years and this will be my seventh journal. It seems to be the only thing keeping me sane anymore. So long near this thing we know isn’t healthy but who else will do it? I need to know my family is protected and I need to know if there’s a breach. I need to know my enemies and their plans. That is my only objective. I will keep them safe. The diary skipped forward with only a single line dated months later: I know I heard the thoughts of my partner today. He wants to end it all

The Fox and her Hound
Dad, I laughed quietly to myself. If you could see me now. You’d never think I’d ever be here. An actual werewolf sleeping at my feet? I’m really back in Jericho… Seems so silly, fighting you all these years and in the end here I am. Maybe you’d be happy. I don’t know.
I like him... Elias. He seems like a great guy, maybe you'd like him too. Seriously, though, he's the alpha of your old pack. He seems dangerous and yet, he saved me. He seems to care about me, and maybe I'm silly for feeling it but I think I like him too.
Six months ago Freya's father died, sending her to the bustling city of Jericho. Nearly kidnapped her first night and actually kidnapped her second she finds herself at the mercy of the mysterious Alpha Elias of the Hollow Moon Pack. Her attraction to him is hard to ignore but she wasn't born a werewolf. Her conflicting instincts to want to run and reject this pack are prevented why she finds out Elias has to be the one to reject her. Just seeing the way Elias looks at her, though, Freya can tell it will take some convincing to finally be free from him. Then again... does she want to be?

Chapter: Chapter 28: Freya-Freya-There was a long bang on the door. Like someone was trying to break it down. That's what caused me to wake up. Why was that what got me to move? I felt too exhausted. I knew I had been sleeping for a long time but I couldn't recall anything. Two figures were blurry in my vision as I reached out. “ALICE!” A young voice gasped and turned the taller one around. “You’re awake!” Alice laughed, “Oh thank the goddess!”I nodded, "what's going on?” Another bang followed by both girls turning back to the door.“It's breaking in!” “It's fine. Elias will protect us.” Alice patted the smaller figure and my vision was finally coming back to reveal it was that young girl. I just couldn't remember- no. Mallory was her name. She was the youngest orphan. Why were they here though? And where was I? I looked around seeing so many vases filled with fox gloves. But how? Why? Shaking my head I heard the beeping of a monitor picking up speed. Looking down I saw the IV in my arm too. “Okay,” I

Chapter: Chapter 27: EliasIt was as if her legs just gave up. I had been watching her so I knew she wasn’t tired, this was something else. One moment she was there, she was smiling, she was happy! The next nothing. It was as if someone had flipped a switch and suddenly she wasn't there anymore. My wolf was going crazy unable to sense her. Constantly I had to reassure myself that she was still here. I was touching her, she wasn't gone she was just sleeping. Shes not sleeping! I heard myself growling as if this could have been magical. Maybe this was divine retribution. Me daring to go against the goddess and her ultimate plan. “We can get her to a hospital.” Andre didn't dare touch her, she was in my arms and that's where I was going to protect her with my life. He knew if he even tried moving closer while she was in this state I'd attack. My wolf was right at the surface now, I could feel my canines extending just looking for the opportunity to pierce the skin of someone who thought they could move again

Chapter: Chapter 26: FreyaEveryone dispersed in a huff making the grey lifeless room even more like a morgue. “What’s the real reason you’re here?” Elias spoke once the crowd left taking a seat on an empty crate in the corner. “Oliver brought me,” I shrugged and took another survey of the room. The kids were still on the step but they seemed to be lost in conversation and Elias didn’t seem to be paying them any mind. I couldn’t shake the feeling they were watching me, “Can we talk alone?” I sighed “Follow me.” He nodded and went back outside. “Oliver!” he called back, “Make sure the kids eat lunch.” The only ones that were around here now were the kids, everyone else had left in a hurry. It felt like any amount of time they were forced to spend here was a waste. I had come to know the signs, growing up it was awkward for people to be around me. They heard I didn’t have a mother and suddenly it was like they were worried I was going to force them to take her place. He led me outside and around the back

Chapter: Chapter 25: FreyaI passed before the hour was done. I don't understand why he was so persistent but I had lost consciousness sometime around the forty minute mark. When I woke back up he was just gone. I took a shower and got dressed, stumbling down the stairs to find Oliver and Andre sitting at the dining table playing cards.“Hey cousin.” Andre smiled and I could feel he was so desperately wanting to comment on what happened between me and Elias. “How has your day been?” “Oh for fucks sake!” Oliver huffed and rolled his eyes back to me, “I'll fucking throw up if you two say one damn thing.” “Where's Elias?” I took a seat next to Oliver who seemed like the lesser of two evils at the moment. “Pack business.” Oliver answered shortly. “I figured, guess that means you two are babysitting me?”Andre kept looking at his hand of cards as he smirked, “Just minding the house since Rose is at the bar.” I nodded, “What'd you give to Elias this morning?” Andre’s head finally snapped up, his eyes wide, “I

Chapter: Chapter 24: FreyaBy the time we got back to the house I was exhausted. I remembered getting to the balcony but everything else was a blur. Elias had offered to pick me up and put me on the balcony and I think I accepted it. Everything afterward is what I questioned. Playing with a little section of soft hair that tangled the tips of my fingers I wasn’t brought out of sleep quickly, more like it was a lull out of my slumber that cradled me into security. I moved up and down rhythmically as strong deep breaths blended through his chest. “Hmmm…” he cooed quietly. I didn't open my eyes. Last I remembered we were both naked so I didn't need to know if he was still because I definitely was. Thankfully, it seemed one of us had enough strength and common sense to put a blanket between us. The sun was well up and I heard the common sounds of the forest, birds, the trees shifting in the wind, and- the howling of wolves?“Damn,” Elias sighed as the howling grew louder. “I guess I did tell them to meet today.

Chapter: Chapter 23: FreyaSo is this what it looks like to have control? He sniffed at the phone once more before looking back at me. “I got upset.” I shrugged and finally was able to make it back to my feet. “Clearly.” Elias was sitting on the chair next out of view. I was actually thankful he maintained a bit of modesty. “I really don't want to hear it right now.” I sighed falling backward onto the bed. “What do you want then?” He was sitting so far from me on the opposite side of the room looking back at me his head cocked to the side. “I don't know.” I did though, I wanted what I couldn't have. I wanted my god to answer me and to stop the goddess from trying to control me. “Get up.” Elias ordered and walked back out to the balcony. My eyes couldn't help but follow him. “What?” Sitting back up, I forced my eyes to only focus on the back of his head. That exposed backside though, that was daring me to look more south. “I thought I was giving orders here.” “Get up, shift into your fox and follow
